The maps in my Bible are not inspired. How ‘bout yours?
The promise in Gen 15:18 continues to describe the land as encompassing the nation of "the Kenites, the Kenezzites, the Kadmonites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Rephaim, the Amorites, the Canaanites, the Girgashites, and the Jebusites."
And how is it described in 1 Kings 4?
20 Judah and Israel were as numerous as the sand by the sea in multitude, eating and drinking and rejoicing. 21 So Solomon reigned over all kingdoms from the River to the land of the Philistines, as far as the border of Egypt. They brought tribute and served Solomon all the days of his life.Israel was a numerous as the sands of the seashore (part of the promise) and the land in question comprised all the kingdom listed in Gen.15:19.
And the context of the promise in Gen 15 is clearly regarding the time after they came out of exile in Egypt, not some unknown time far, far in the future ala dispensationalism (cf. vv.13,14).

Solomon's Kingdom encompassed almost all of the land promised.
Now, the question that the article raised was what was Josh.21:43 referring to when it states that the Lord gave all that he sware to the father's', and that is not referring to Solomon, but to what Moses had told the generation that was going into the Promised Land regarding the land of Canaan (Deut.7:23)
